Hi Judy,

I have found no trace of Phyllis marrying a Russell Pilkington in the UK.  Further more I can't find much on Russell Pilkington at all.

In the UK 1911 Census there is only one reference to a Phyllis E. Brown born around 1902.

Her parents are: John Joseph Brown (41y) Stationery Engine Driver in an Iron Works.  He was born in Weardale, Co. Durham.

Her mother is  Edith A. Brown (41y). She has had  only one child and that is Phyllis. They were both born in Wellingborough.

The parents have been married 15 yrs, therefore marr. c. 1895.
